1(61) For the end, among the Hymns of David. O God, listen to my petition; attend to my prayer.
1O God, thou hast cast us off, thou hast scattered us, thou hast been displeased; O turn thyself to us again.
2From the ends of the earth have I cried to you, when my heart was in trouble: you lifted me up on a rock you did guide me:
2Thou hast made the earth to tremble; thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh.
3because you were my hope, a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.
3Thou hast shewed thy people hard things: thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment.
4I will dwell in your tabernacle for ever; I will shelter myself under the shadow of your wings. Pause.
4Thou hast given a banner to them that fear thee, that it may be displayed because of the truth. Selah.
5For you, o God, have heard my prayers; you have given an inheritance to them that fear your name.
5That thy beloved may be delivered; save with thy right hand, and hear me.
6You shall add days to the days of the king; [you shall lengthen] his years to all generations.
6God hath spoken in his holiness; I will rejoice, I will divide Shechem, and mete out the valley of Succoth.
7He shall endure for ever before God: which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?
7Gilead is mine, and Manasseh is mine; Ephraim also is the strength of mine head; Judah is my lawgiver;
8So will I sing to your name for ever and ever, that I may daily perform my vows.
8Moab is my washpot; over Edom will I cast out my shoe: Philistia, triumph thou because of me.
